My family, My joy

Family photo(Boo closed her eyes!) Can anyone photo-shop to fix this?I didnt plan it so we dont match , but next I will bring all white.Mama and her babiesTrying to get a smile out of BooPapi and his babies :)

I miss the beach :)We live right off the Gulf but it is NOT the same as the ocean. Not. At. All.

Bug is back to her old self, runnin, dancin and jumpin, and singin ! Notice I am not using my "G" just like Sarah Palin :)Did you see how hateful some of her rallies have gotten? Regardless of which side you prefer, NO ONE should be screaming "kill him" . And she just smiles..not good. On that note I was very impressed that Sen. MCcain addressed a lady in the crowd today When she said she was scared of Obama he is an Arab. He stated that "Sen Obama was not an Arab and that he was a decent , good man who he just had differences with" He also told the crowd they have NO reason to fear Barack Obama if he becomes President. He was very firm and respectful. Nice change.

We have been bouncing some names around...by we, I mean my hubby, kendra and I :) I think I want something pretty that ends in an "a" kinda Italian or Spanish sounding. Of course we will not make a decision until we see what our new daughters name is. Any idea?

Sweet little Abby is going trick or treating! She has to be very careful but for a child even a little Halloween is cool!

I made my yummy Biscottirecipe today! I haven't made it in a while and everyone gobbled them up! Well now I have to make more ;)

Love the beach pics!! We're headed that way tomorrow...I'm so looking forward to it...Looks like we'll have great weather, Kristi ps...thanks for you comment today...I'm sure you'll chill out with the "cleaning and no mess" house once you get #4 (: My theory is...if it's working for you then keep doing it...I'm just an awful house keeper and can't keep up, Kristi

"...Once our eyes are opened, we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls knows that we know, and holds us responsible to ACT..." Proverbs 24:12"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27

~Starfish~

2 friends were walking along the beach. The beach was littered with thousands of starfish that were drying up in the sun.As the 2 friends walked along,one of them bent down and picked up a starfish and carefully tossed it back to the sea. They could hardly walk without the man rescuing a poor starfish. As they continued , the one man asked his friend "why are you throwing these starfish back into the water? It doesnt matter" The friend smiled, As he tossed the starfish back to the sea , he simply said...

" It matters to this one."

Friends~
